I had a long chat to AB before the meeting started, mostly about RRR and Colombia and was interrupted by one of the organisers needing his temporary attention.
Some of the things that he told me were obviously not for consumption on a public bulletin board and I gave him my guarantee that it would NOT be posted. In short progress is being made in Colombia and they are restructuring the management so that it is tighter and operating as RRR would like it to. Can't say more than that or else I would lose AB's trust and confidence.
I will iterate, that NOTHING that AB told me last night could be construed as being price sensitive information.
With regard to RGM, a few things that stood out for me on the presentation and from what I was told by Edmund Bugnosen, (director and Philipine national who is an Assistant Project Engineer for Mambare).
Firstly the resource is sitting very close to the surface and is easily accessible and covers an area of about 120 sq km. They are pretty confident that the laterite nickel covers most of this area which does have a river flowing through it.
There are no people to be displaced as they are operating in virgin forest so there will be no relocation and compensation costs before start of operations. There area will be restored to its former condition at the end of the mining operation.
There are roads to a port on the East coast which was originally built by the Americans (I think) and an airfield very close by.
Two very significant points from AB's presentation was the fact that he is 80-95% sure of the success of the DNi process. Those who have read the DNi presentation should make a point of reading it now.
The value of the resource could be worth US$100bn (100bn - who cares when the figures are that big?). This guestimated valuation is of course highly dependent on the DNi process being commercially viable. So, at the current number of shares in issue, and assuming a valuation of just a very measely 1bn for the resource, our shares could be worth around 1.65 on Mambare alone, but in say 2-3 year's time.
There is, of course, the cobalt which is very valuable as well in terms of price per ton, if they can successfully extract that from the clay in which the nickel sits.
Whilst this is very OT, the first presentation was rather heavy going delivered by someone who is obviously very passionate about his subject and with a little too much dead seriousness. But the important point I took from the presentation is the estimated gold price if they were to be expressed in the following currencies the US$, Stg, JPY and the CHF, were they all to be backed by gold.
For the JPY, gold would be 40m - yes, that's 40m! - to the ounce, the US$3,900, I can't remember what the rate was but not much better or worse that the US$.
The hidden message for me is to hold physical gold and silver if you can before the shit hits the fan.

Regency Mines updates schedule for drill programme at Botue-Mambare nickel-cobalt project
12:06 pm by Sergei Balashov
Other operations currently underway on the site include the completion of the line survey, test pitting, camp construction and hiring of local workers Other operations currently underway on the site include the completion of the line survey, test pitting, camp construction and hiring of local workers
Regency Mines (LON:RGM) today updated investors on the schedule for the upcoming drill programme at the Botue-Mambare nickel-cobalt project in Papua New Guinea, operated by its joint venture (JV) with Direct Nickel (DNi).
The project management staff are currently preparing for the start of drilling, which is expected closer to the end of the month, some four weeks behind the original schedule, which is also when the new ground-penetrating radar (GPR) survey is expected to start. This has to do with the delays in the procuring of visas for the drillers and with the delays dealing with the customs clearance necessary for the drill companys shipping container to be moved to the project area.
The container has already arrived at Port Moresby and is currently waiting to receive the clearance.
Other operations currently underway on the site include the completion of the line survey, test pitting, camp construction and hiring of local workers.
Regency simultaneously announced that it has hired Geotech Airborne Pty to carry out a 1,054 line km helicopter-borne versatile time-domain electromagnetic (VTEM) survey over five areas at Regency's Bundarra copper-gold prospect in Queensland. This programme will take place after 15 August and will take a week.
The company also told investors that the JVs local operating company Canopus No 83 Ltd will change its name to Oro Nickel.
Adviser to Regency Mines associate Red Rock Resources (LON:RRR) Richard Evans has recently taken up a wider role of group chief scientific adviser as will now advise all companies in the Regency Mines group.

From the DNi Web Site have a look if you forgot why you are here.
Vision
Industry leadership:
Our aim is to build Direct Nickel into a major nickel producer, using the DNi Process licences to access and process nickel laterite resources.
Resource revaluation:
DNi is building a nickel inventory by acquiring interests in undervalued laterite resources and is substantially revaluing these resources by applying the DNi Process.
A successful DNi Process will revalue nickel companies by 20-30 times (by market capitalisation). Mine development:
Select optimum deposits, using leverage from the DNi Process and build mines in partnership with resource owners.
Strategy
De-risking the DNi Process:
A successful Demonstration Plant promises to set the foundations for disruptive change in the economics of the nickel sector. With Process demonstration in hand, Direct Nickel has a clear path to become a high efficiency nickel producer with strong margins driven by a capital cost around half of conventional processes, and among the lowest global operating costs.
Strong technical and financial partners:
Teck Resources, Drinkard Metalox, Aker Solutions, OZ Minerals, Australias Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), Regency Mines and a global IP protection team.
Resource acquisition:
Direct Nickel is positioned to become a nickel explorer and producer and has secured interests in a number of resources through partnership. In time DNi will acquire and develop its own projects.

Don't know why it had a sell or why it's now a speculative buy looks like a no brainer to me.
Small Cap Weekly Review 036
Friday 20 May 2011
Rating Changes
Regency Mines (RGM) Speculative buy (from sell)
(20 May) We have reviewed our rating on Regency. We calculate the value of its existing stakes in Oracle Coalfields (2.3m), Red Rock Resources (10.5m), Direct Nickel (3.4m-3.7m), Alba Minerals (0.23m), along with other investments and cash due add up to around 17m. We assume the EV (enterprise value) to be around 24m, after adjusting for the $2m Yorkville loan and assumed cash. The Mambare nickel laterite project in PNG (Papua New Guinea) is a large target (previously estimated at 630 mt (million tonnes) at 0.78% Ni (nickel) at 0.5% cut-off and 200 mt at 1.01% Ni at 0.8% cut-off) where drilling is expected to start shortly. The Company has had the project for some time and we would hope they demonstrate progress towards establishing a resource. There should also be some early stage work on the Bundarra copper-gold prospect in Queensland in August. The various investments they have underpin the valuation and we look for operational results in the remainder of 2011 to put back some positive momentum in the share price. We have moved from Sell to Speculative Buy.

Dear Shareholders and Colleagues,
You may have seen that I sold a few Regency shares this week.
Those of you who have been shareholders for a while will know that each time I exercise options, I also shortly after tend to sell a few to meet the immediate tax bill. In recent years, the tax regime on options has become quite unfavourable, and we have to pay income tax and NI on the difference between the exercise price and the market price, and do it promptly.
We do try to explain, and then the next time it happens, there are again some shareholders who worry that we are showing a lack of confidence in the company and sending a bad signal to the market.
So, for the avoidance of doubt, let me clarify that if and when I am in a position to sell options in the future, it is highly probable that I will again be obliged to sell some to meet tax obligations. You should therefore expect it, but each time I expect that the sale will be much less than the preceding purchase. I will not enjoy doing it, and this will say nothing about my view on the stock price.
The options we exercised in May expired at the end of May, so had to be exercised or lost. I am selling less than half of those recently acquired, so that my direct shareholding at the end of June is higher, not lower, than at the beginning of May. This has also been the case with past sales following exercise of options: each time the holding of shares at the end of the exercise is higher than it was before.
There is never a right time for directors to sell, and I do assure you of our complete commitment to and confidence in the company.
I am asked by a shareholder to point out that ABN Newswire recently had a video interview with Direct Nickel on its CEO Interview series. It is certainly interesting, but in that it might be deemed promotional by DNi (who as we understand it wish to raise money for a backdoor listing in Australia), we and our Nomad decided it would be inappropriate to link to it in an announcement. We have no responsibility for anything that DNi may say in it. However, with that necessary health warning from us, some of you may find it illuminating as to what DNi actually does, and as an introduction to the founders of DNi.
Andrew
